Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Ampfield
Wherever your kitchen is in Ampfield, fan work means the extract has to be isolated, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. Evenings, overnight and weekends are all possible, and a fan that dies mid-service can go straight to our 24/7 line. Common call-outs are for a fan worn beyond sensible repair and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen, across roof and wall fans, fan housings and fan motors.
Somewhere as small as Ampfield, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
Listen to the fan over the next few weeks. A new noise or vibration is worth reporting early, so it can be looked at before it grows.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and helps prevent overheating.
What the work involves, part by part
Fan controls
Where the fault is in the building’s electrical supply, an electrician is needed. If that is the cause, we’ll say so and explain what we found.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Noise from an outside fan can carry beyond the kitchen. It’s often down to loose mounts or worn bearings.

Ampfield: your questions answered
Do you work at weekends in Ampfield?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Can you get to a site in Ampfield?
Yes, Ampfield is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What about areas you cannot get to?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Why it’s worth doing now in Ampfield
In Ampfield, as elsewhere, an extract fan may well sit outside on a wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Fixing the cause quietens it down before it becomes a nuisance. With notice, the visit to Ampfield can be fitted around your bookings and events.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
What extract fan repair looks like in Ampfield
It’s Test Valley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Ampfield. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. That is one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Ampfield Church of England Primary School, rather than mid-term.

When to call us in Ampfield
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. Deposits gather on the blades, never quite evenly, so the fan runs out of balance and starts to vibrate and rattle.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- An old fan that needs replacing
- Poor airflow at the canopy
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St Mark or elsewhere in Ampfield, can seize between uses.
Before booking anyone
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- What insurance they carry
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether a survey comes first
How the visit works
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. The timing of a visit to Ampfield is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
- We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
- Once the work is done, we run the fan and check it’s steady and quiet.
Preparing for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
